Yeah we need to hang onto our kids. Best buy some expensive Bulls leisurewear!

To be honest I won't be surprised if we start taking offers for good young uns. After what OK has doen it would be a desperate shame but the omens are not good. Gerry Sutcliffe made a few comments in the T&A bulling up our licence decision, but in between the lines you got that shirt sales had been down, that they had fallen short on season ticket sales and that times are hard.

Add to this the news about the council loan etc and I fear we may be vulnerable to more temptation if offers were to come our way.

What I don't understand is how come, even if they didn't get season passes, we are still 2 or 3 thou down on crowds, after the spirit and goodwill built up in the crisis. We have vastly overachieved on most expectations, there's a good positive buzz around the place and especially from the team, so this must be very disappointing. I can imagine if we budgeted for a thou or two more on average at the gate then that's a big hole when you're also robbed of half your Sky money.

We really could do with making sure we get our Sky money next year.

As for the lost fans. Many came out of obligation last year I think. That desperation has gone to some extent. It's a shame as I think I connected more with the team in 2012 and it's led me to be far more interested now than I have been for many years beforehand. The club needs to market itself and get some new fans on board. That may take time, the team is doing it on the pitch but we need publicity and gimmicks to get first timers in that can be hooked.

Is the game today at 5pm UK time or 5pm Catalan time?

Sporting Life says 5pm, so it'll be 5pm here I would think.

According to twitter the Line up is:

Bulls team: Kearney, Kear, Purtell, Whitehead, Foster, Addy, Sammutan Scruton, L'Estrange, Manuokafoa, Bateman, Olbison

Interchange: Sidlow, Diskin, Donaldson, Murphy

Is Matty Blythe injured at the moment?

Yeah, he picked up a knock a vs Widnes. Hopefully he'll be back soon as he's been great for us so far.

Sammutan?
